WE ARE WHAT WE EAT/MY HEALTHY DIET

Every day we hear nutritionists saying we are what we eat, this is so true. If you eat burgers and chocolate and chips all year round don't be suprise to go from a size 8 to a size 14 in just one year.

 Loosing weight requires a huge commitment and motivation. In fact it is a new life style altogether. I never look at keeping fit as a diet but as a lifestyle. I know what it feels like to go to Zara, thinking I'm a size 12 and the 12 doesn't fit. Not being able to wear what you want or feel sexy. All depends on what you put in your mouth.
When I started exercising back in 2008, it was hard and the hardest bit is the eating habit. Like most people I crave for carbs and we don't have to stop eating carbs all together, but we need to eat the good carbs(will post more about it).
My new healthy diet is about gaining more lean muscle and possibly less body fat. I'm now following some diet tips on bodybuilding.com(great stuff there). It's important to say that I have a low metabolism and my current diet helps increasing it.
Now, I eat 4 to 6 times a day depending on how busy I am. You will have to figure out what works for you depending on how busy you are.

Wake-up a 6:30, now at this time of the day it is quite impossible for me to eat anything before going to the gym. But if I exercise in the afternoon or evening, then I will eat an hour before hitting the gym.

 Workout 7am-9am Post-workout meal: Meal 1

one scoop of 100%whey protein (chocolate flavour)(120 cal)
 half a glass of oatmeal(I meseare half a glass then I soak it for 10 mins before cooking)
and 5 eggs white(optional)
1small Apple

 Meal 2 (LUNCH)
1 serving of carbs(sweeet potatoes, or brown rice)
1 serving of protein (chicken, or fish)
 unlimited vegetable.
 Meal 3
 2
Turkey muffing(Protein)
carbs(3 rice biscuit, organic)
unlimited vegetable
 Meal 4 
Lean meat (tuckey or chicken)
sweet potatoes
Meal 5
5 eggs white
Vegetable
or a soup

Something I will eat an apple before going to bed because I will be going to the gym first thing in the morning.
The aboe meals may seem a lots, but the sizes are not big at all. And if you can't eat 5-6 times then you can eat 3 medium meals and 2 small meal. 

Now as for the portion I will do another post. However, I do eat depending how my body feels. When hunger stike between meals I will take a small apple or 5 almonds nut. If like me you like nuts, it's important to not overeat it. As you can see in my meals, after my breakfast/postworkout meals I eat lunch. well this is because as you can see my breakfast is quite a lot. my breakfast if very important because I feed my muscle and gain my energy for the day.If you live a busy lifestyle, it's important to plan you meals ahead. Yesterday I saw some smal container in £1 shop that can be taken to the office or school, work. I DRINK 6-8 GLASS OF WATER A DAY.
